6 The number of those who lapped with their hands to their mouths was three hundred men. All the rest of the people knelt to drink water.

21 Then the angel of the Lord touched the meat and the unleavened bread with the tip of the staff that was in his hand. Fire flared from the rock and consumed the meat and the unleavened bread. And the angel of the Lord disappeared from his sight.

14 The Lord turned to him and said, 'Go in the strength you have and save Israel from the hand of Midian. Am I not sending you?'
4 Then Gideon and his three hundred men, exhausted yet pursuing, came to the Jordan and crossed it.
5 He said to the men of Succoth, 'Please give loaves of bread to the people who are following me, for they are exhausted, and I am pursuing Zebah and Zalmunna, the kings of Midian.'
